C7 Let's See Who's Here

7. Look who's here.

"Okay, okay, okay. Can't I lower the price? Anyway, these things have been destroyed. Today, I'll sell them all at half price. It should be done, right?" The grocery store owner had a look of bad luck. He thought he was unlucky. It was his fault that he had a bad intention to tease the children. Who would have thought that the little kid would really go and catch a vixen? It was a great fortune to be able to come back alive.

"Where am I?" Chen Fann was not going to do it anymore. These villagers had taken advantage of this opportunity. He had put in a lot of effort and almost lost all of his energy. If this profiteer Old Zhao did not give him an explanation, this matter would not end!

"I'll give you salt, I'll give you two pounds. That's enough!" Seeing that the situation had already reached this stage, Old Zhao did not lack that bit of money. As long as everyone was happy, he would be able to earn it back in the future.

Chen Fann hugged the small bag of salt and smiled contentedly. Finally, he didn't waste his time. He couldn't care whether others took advantage of him or not. Anyway, he had gotten what he wanted.

Chen Fann had already shaved off the fur of the beast skin that the shop owner did not want and made it into a leather bag. He put the salt in carefully. With the salt, children could ensure their health and growth. This could be considered a big matter for Chen Fann.

After squeezing out the noisy crowd, Chen Fann came to the street of the small town and prepared to leave.

There was a small road leading to the outside of the town. It was bumpy and bumpy. If he walked another hundred miles, he would reach the county town. There were more people and more information.

Chen Fann carried his small bag and walked out of the town as soon as he thought about it.

When he first came to this world, it was still spring and full of flowers, but now it was already early autumn with yellow leaves. Half a year had passed without him noticing, and Chen Fann had just taken the first step in his search for immortals.

Chen Fann didn't feel that his progress was too slow. Being able to live peacefully was already his greatest happiness. As for his wish of immortality, whether it could be realized or not, it wouldn't be in vain for him to come to this world once.

After another half a month, Chen Fann finally arrived at the county town closest to Shanghe Village.

Although the words "Pingping County" were written at the city gate, the actual size of the town wasn't big. It was only about a thousand households. It was similar to the population of a town in the previous world that Chen Fann came from. Moreover, the construction level was obviously very low. The city wall had not been repaired for a long time. Green moss could be seen in some of the cracks in the stone.

There was only an old veteran who was sleeping soundly against the city wall at the city gate. Looking at his leisurely manner, it seemed that this place rarely encountered any natural disasters or man-made disasters.

No one charged any entrance tax, and Chen Fann just casually walked into the city gate.

Since he did not have money on him, he could forget about staying in the store. Chen Fann had money in his pocket. Chen Fann also had some dried meat in his pocket. Although he was sick of it, he couldn't get hungry. He had the time to walk around the city and watch the show.

The county magistrate court was a courtyard. At the entrance, there were four big words, "Filling the county magistrate court." It was not written in gold. It was not written in gold, but in black paint. There were two long cracks on the plaque.

A grievance drum was placed at the entrance. The drum skin was broken, and the drumstick was nowhere to be found.

Looking inside from the door, he saw that the yard was covered in corn. A man in a shirt was turning over the yard, turning the corn on top of it to continue drying.

Seeing Chen Fann poking his head out, the man smiled and waved at Chen Fann. Come in, lad, where are you from?

The monk's robe that Chen Fann was wearing had turned gray and yellow. Only the kasaya was as clean as new. Even though Chen Fann didn't know much about it, he knew that this kasaya was extraordinary. Naturally, it was already in his bag. Right now, he was wearing a gray yellow robe, carrying a two-meter long stick. There was a small bag on the stick, and a kitchen knife was stuck in the back of his butt.

Perhaps it was because of the Primordial Energy Pill, but Chen Fann was no smaller than a child from an ordinary family. He was even stronger than the children of some wealthy families. He looked like he was twelve or thirteen years old. At this age, he could be considered a young man in ordinary families. In this world, Many children married at fourteen or fifteen, and became fathers at sixteen or seventeen. There was no distinction between rich and poor. Poor families hoped to have more labor. The rich wished to have the strength of their children and grandchildren early, and the rich wished to continue their wealth. The earlier they carry their children, the earlier they can take care of them for a few more years. They would pass on the experience of making a family rich.

"Come from Shanghe Village." Chen Fann did not know where he was from. He only knew about Shanghe Village. He was from that village. There was no such thing as an ID in this world.

"Oh, are you planning to settle down here?" The middle-aged man asked Chen Fann kindly.

"Settle down?" Chen Fann asked. "What do you want to say?" Chen Fann did not understand this.

"Oh, hehe. I forgot that you came from Shanghe Village. You haven't registered yet. " The population will be registered in the next few months. If you settle down in Fuping County... Not only the land, but the houses and the seeds. Do you still have anyone in your family? If you have more than five people in your family, you can also get a cow. "

Seeing Chen Fann shake his head, the middle-aged man sighed. "Is there no one in the family?"

"Yes, I'm the only one at home. Chen Fann gritted his teeth. "Mom and Dad, don't blame your son for talking nonsense. Anyway, I won't be able to see you guys in this world. ... "Mom and dad are gone."

"Oh, if you want to settle down like that, I'll help you with the procedures. Even if you go somewhere else, with this procedure, you can still find a livelihood there." The middle-aged man seemed to be very enthusiastic about this matter.

"You are?" Chen Fann was a little suspicious that the person in front of him was the county magistrate of Fuping County. Otherwise, who would be so free to find someone to settle down with?

"I am Sun Shiyuan, the County Magistrate of Fuping County."

The middle-aged man smiled and straightened his body a little. He looked like an official.

"Oh, sorry for the disrespect. It is the County Magistrate!" Chen Fann couldn't help but clasp his hands when he heard that it was indeed the County Magistrate who had pacified the county magistrate. In his previous life, the biggest official he had ever met was only a mayor. Now, he had met a county magistrate. However, this county magistrate was similar to the mayor. He only managed a few thousand people.

"Haha, no need to be polite. Looking at you like this, could it be that you are someone who has seen the world? Is there an official in your family?" Sun Shiyuan knew that ordinary people were illiterate. When they saw the county magistrate, they would either kowtow or bow. Very few people knew how to wave their hands. Chen Fann was neither servile nor overbearing. He didn't seem to think that the county magistrate was noble. This made Sun Shiyuan very curious. Could it be that he accidentally met a descendant of a hermit?

"No, I am just an ordinary citizen. Didn't you want to help me settle down? Then let's settle down first. I might have to go to other places to do things in a few days, so I'm afraid I can't stay here for too long." Chen Fann also wanted to get himself a real identity first. This way, he would at least have a place to travel in the martial world in the future.

Sun Shiyuan smiled and nodded. He put the shovel in his hand aside and extended his hand to ask Chen Fann to follow him.

When he arrived at the study room behind the government office, Sun Shiyuan found a family register and wrote Chen Fann's name on it. It stated that he was from Shanghe Village. Then, he wrote a certificate, stamped it, and handed it to Chen Fann. Even if the household registration was completed, Chen Fann would have an official identity.

This world was still very backward. Many things were handled by people. The management of the family register was not strict enough. Living in a place would be registered as a local. And after leaving the place, living in a foreign place. Naturally, there would be a big error in the total number. However, it did not affect the national policy much, so everyone just thought that it was gone. Technology had not developed to the national internet yet, so naturally, it could not force the precision of numbers.

After lunch at the Sun County Ling family's residence, Chen Fann took his leave. For a moment, he felt that he had become a rootless duckweed and had nowhere to go.

After thinking for a while, Chen Fann decided to find a temple to stay in for a few days. He had the Buddhist beads, Buddhist staff, and a kasaya in his hands. It shouldn't be a problem for him to be a novice monk, right?

At this time, Chen Fann had already forgotten about the matter of him settling down in the county and becoming a monk as soon as he settled down.

He asked around about the temple in the county. Fortunately, there was a temple here. There were only two monks in the temple. They were both in their seventies and eighties. One was called Tranquil and the other was called Qing Xin.

After putting on his equipment in a deserted place, Chen Fann walked towards the temple with his staff.

The small temple wasn't big. One of the main rooms could be considered as the main hall of the palace. The other room could be considered as the meditation room where two monks lived. There was also a kitchen. It was considered complete.

After Chen Fann entered the small temple called the Moliang Temple, Monk Tranquil, who was chanting Buddha in the temple hall, was stunned. How many years had it been since a monk had visited this place? He could not remember the last time he saw a monk. It seemed that the temple had just been built twenty years ago. The monks of the Guanghua Temple of Fu Residence had come to light up the Buddha statue. This was the first time they had seen it. It had been twenty years since then.

"Amitabha!" Monk Tranquil used an unimaginable speed to arrive in front of the temple. She bowed deeply to Chen Fann and said, "This poor monk is Tranquil. Greetings, monk."

Old Mai's face was full of excitement. After so many years, he had finally met the organization. It turned out that his superior had not forgotten about me, Tranquil, and this mosque.

"Amitabha. This poor monk, Chen Fann, greets the monk friend." Chen Fann was still reporting his name. In such a rush, he could not think of any Dharma name. What if he made a mistake? Anyway, Chen Fann and Chen Fan were almost the same. He would just treat it as Chen Fan.

Old Monk Tranquil was a little puzzled, but she didn't think too much about it. What she was thinking right now was nothing but the name 'Chen Fan'. Someone had come to visit her, and she was pleasantly surprised. How could she doubt Chen Fann's identity?

"Please come in, Qing Xin. Quickly come out and take a look. Let's see who has come!" An Jing, who could not hide her surprise, shouted at the top of her voice. This was a rare thing for an old monk who always cared about peace and quiet.

"Coming, coming, coming, what's wrong?" Qing Xin was also an old monk. His face was full of wrinkles, and he held two raw melons in his hands. He ran out in a panic. He looked like an unfamiliar young monk. The corner of his mouth also revealed a smile. "Fellow monks, please come in. I'll prepare the evening meal now. I hope that fellow monk doesn't mind the simple and crude vegetarian dishes."

Chen Fann smiled and said, "One drink and one meal as a place to think. This poor monk naturally has to thank you for your kindness."

This sentence was already considered the ink in Chen Fann's stomach. That's the only language you can come up with. It was really tiring to talk to these two monks.

After chatting for a while, Tranquil invited Chen Fann to sit in the main hall and poured him a cup of tea. The tea leaves were planted on the mountain and tasted pretty good. At least, it was much better than the tea leaves that were grown with fertilizers and pesticides.

After finding out that Chen Fan came from Lingshan Temple, Tranquil's face was filled with shock. Chen Fann was not a Buddhist. Naturally, he did not know that Lingshan Temple was equivalent to a holy land in the monk's heart. Every monk there had extraordinary abilities. Be it the comprehension of Buddhist scriptures or the Buddhist Dharma, they were both world-shaking. They could be considered one of the top sects in Cultivation Realm.

Every monk from the Lingshan Temple was very powerful. Each of them had a few trump cards.

After hearing what Tranquil said, Chen Fann finally knew how powerful that damn monk he met was. Then wouldn't the demon that could take the dead monk down with him be even more powerful?

With this calculation, wouldn't the demon core in his hand be even more precious? The three relics left behind by the dead monk were even more precious.

When Tranquil asked who Chen Fann's master was, Chen Fann told her the name that he had heard from the vixen. Regardless of whether it was Elder Wuxin, who was known as the Jade Faceless Buddha, he didn't know the name of anyone else. If he told her the name of the monk in Lingshan Temple, wouldn't it be a waste of his time?

The moment Elder Wuxin's name was mentioned, a look of complete shock appeared on Tranquil Sect's face. It could be seen that this Elder Wuxin's reputation was indeed not small.

"Amitabha. Fellow Daoist Wuxin is an eminent monk that we respect. Could the Devil Subduing Buddhist Staff in your hand be Fellow Daoist Wuxin's magic tool? " May I have a look? "

The staff in Chen Fann's hand was really too long. It did not look like a Buddha plaque or Buddha beads that could be hidden. It looked extraordinary. It would be a pity if he threw it away, but it would not be able to fool anyone if he held it in his hand.

Seeing that Tranquil wanted to take a closer look, Chen Fann handed the staff over. He didn't trust others easily. But if the old monk wanted to rob him, he wouldn't be able to resist. He might as well act forthright.

Tranquil carefully looked at the pattern on the staff and nodded repeatedly. She muttered to herself, "It is indeed the Devil Subduing Staff Technique. It is much more detailed than what I saw in the Guanghua Temple. It is indeed worthy of being one of the ten Buddhist weapons."

After hearing these words, Chen Fann's face revealed an unconcealable shock. This unremarkable staff was actually one of the Ten Great Buddhist Weapons? Then wouldn't the dead monk he met be one of the ten great experts of Buddhism? He died in the wilderness without a sound? Was it because the monster was too powerful, or was it because the monk was too incompetent?

On second thought, There was a staff technique on the staff. If he could practice it, he should be able to protect himself, right?

"Well, Brother Tranquil Monk, I haven't been with Master for long. I haven't practiced this magic staff technique yet, and I don't know where Master went. I want to return to the Spirit Mountain Temple. It's a long and arduous journey. In order to protect myself, I really want to learn some skills to protect myself. Can you teach me how to use the magic staff technique?"
